Actress and Metro FM radio host Thato Immaculate and her husband, Brandon Mthombeni, have just shared some heartwarming news — they are now parents for the first time.
The couple surprised fans on social media with a touching video showing them hugging, while Thato held a baby bottle filled with milk in her hand. The emotional clip was captioned:
“Our gift from God has finally arrived. Glory to Jesus. I love you my Dime @callherthato, this new chapter of our love story has been, IMMACULATE.”
On her own TikTok page, Thato posted the same video but added a slightly different caption: “Our gift from God has finally arrived. Glory to Jesus. Our best kept secret.”
The announcement immediately drew in thousands of congratulatory messages from fans, celebrities, and close friends. Actress Gaisang Noge was overwhelmed with joy and wrote:
“I’m crying!!! Congratulations mama. Mama, may God bless you more and more!!”
Reality TV star Kayleigh Schwark also sent her love, commenting: “Congratulations fellow mama to be, wishing you both a beautiful, healthy and God-sent delivery. These 2025 babies rock!!!!”
One fan was amazed at how the couple managed to keep the pregnancy private, saying, “I’m still shocked like how did y’all manage to keep it a secret, this is beautiful, congratulations mama and dada from the best aunty.”
Thato responded honestly, revealing how she managed to keep her pregnancy away from the spotlight. She explained, “Great friends, family and colleagues but I’ve just been in hiding this year. Also some extreme measures… wearing velvet at the Metro FM Music Awards because it will hide the bump.”
On her Instagram stories, Thato addressed more of the questions she’s been getting since the surprise reveal. Fans kept asking whether the baby had already been born, if it was a boy or a girl, and why she used the word “arrived.” She laughed it off and simply told them:
“Just wait … Please let Mr Mthombeni cook.”
The couple’s surprise announcement has left fans overjoyed, with many praising them for keeping such a precious secret. As they step into this new chapter of parenthood, their supporters continue to shower them with blessings, love, and excitement for the journey ahead.
